KNN News: Jon Bay of the Conservative Party of Kalistan Releases Statement on Recent Right Wing Electoral Gain

KNN News: Liberal Patriots League Releases Statements through Patriot news Outlets: Seeks Position in Right Wing Government

Conservative Party Leader Jon Bay was quoted to have said: "Yet another great election cycle for the Conservative Party! This time around, we would like to see more solidarity with the other Conservative Parties in the Assembly, such as the LPL, the NRP, and the UPM. We have decided to form a cabinet that includes the Socialist Party in a new Government, since our majority is very slim and still basically shared with the Socialists. We are looking forward to a new era, an era of conservatism. We hope to work closely with those opposed to us (the SPoK, PPP, and RFP). Perhaps we are a little naive, but we are a party that believes in grand compromise, and if the Socialists do not want to be a part of our government, then we will ask our conservative allies to join it instead. We believe that the best Government is the Government that has two parties constantly checking eachother, and that is the Government which we are trying to form. We are always looking out for the people of Kalistan, and we hope to do what is best for them. If we are a little naive, we will soon find out. It is time for all parties to lead Kalistan down the path which it deserves, God Willing. Thank You."

Reports today indicate that the RFP-KEG has put it's militia, the Kalistani Libertarian Army for World Socialism (KLAWS) on full alert. Additionally, The Kalistani Revolutionary Youth (KRY) and the Polytheist Army of Nature (PAN) have also begun to hold meetings in order to construct new strategies.

In other news today, The Aquarius Society has recently released a secret statement stating that the people of Kalistan need not fear. The Society will always be here to protect Kalistan.

We anticipate a crisis brewing in Kalistan, as a number of social programs are rolled back by the first legitimate conservative majority in decades. However, the Socialist Party would like to reaffirm its commitment to democratic process. SPoK has always adhered to the position that if a Party didn't like a law, they could work to get it removed, and if they had the votes to do that, they would get it removed. That is the process, and we have to accept it even if we don't agree with what is being done.

SPoK's militia has been activated for almost ten years now, and has taken on the trappings of a standing army. SPoK will remain at its current state of preparedness, consisting of a corp of artillery and support, totalling about 50,000 militia members under arms, and shall begin conducting field exercises again, should they be called up, but no new recruitment efforts have been announced, and SPoK partisans are, for the time being not on alert.

We do not look forward to the coming crisis, and yet somehow, we think the society will survive until Kalistan can move to a sunnier day, and leftist ideology be restored to Kalistan. SPoK would like to consult with coalition partners to discuss joint exercises and possibility for future coordination of action.

KNN News: Conservative Party Releases Statement Denying Fascism in Party

"We at the Conservative Party would like to clear up a few misconceptions about our party1.We are not a party about fascism, we will fight any and all forms of fascism wherever they pop up.

2. We are very thankful that the SPoK gave us a place in the previous government, and the recent slew of cabinet proposals were an attempt to try and reorganize the government so that we could hold the premiership, being the majority party in the Assembly. Of course, it has turned into a game of political buy offs and we regret that this has happened, and we hope that there isn't any bitter animosity between the left and us, just staunch disagreement.

3. We are a party of compassion. We believe in helping those who are less fortunate, we just believe that they can be much better helped with as little government influence as possible. We believe the private sector has a much better track record. The CPoK wants what is best for Kalistan, and so we will continue to work towards that end. Thank You"

KNN News: Socialist Party of Kalistan's Paper Releases Statement: Militia Forces Take Control of Party from Moderates

REVOLUCION- Official Organ of the Socialist Revolution in Kalistan

News Update: Special Session ends poorly for moderates

The Socialist Party of Kalistan has been put on hiatus, for an undefined period of time. After events of late last year, where an angry mob of SPoK partisans descended on SPoK headquarters demanding alteration of Socialist Policy, the moderate socialist movement was dealt another blow as militants ousted the Socialist leadership, representing a firm break with the policy of accommodation with the right.

It all started when SP leaders called an emergency convention to try to reconcile differences with militant factions of the Party who had been responsible for damage to SPoK headquarters. The meeting began on schedule at nine am yesterday morning the 1st of March, and was held at the Convention Center attached to SPoK Headquarters in Kaliburg. When the meeting was called to order, it was realized that none of the militants had showed up, and the room was packed with supporters of the more moderate line, numbering approximately 100 delegates as well as the entire shadow cabinet of the Party. Motions were made to reach out to the militia (RSMoK), from whose ranks it was believed that protests of last year arose.

Shortly after 9:30, it was announced that the Right-Left coalition government had fallen, and the LPL now had the Premiership. A silence fell over the room, and all of a sudden, the sound of a military parade going on outside filled the hall. At first, the delegates seemed worried that the fascists had come to round them up, but then it was realized that the songs being played were Socialist marching songs, not songs of the right. The dais tried, in vain to regain order.

Delegates were jolted once more when the doors were kicked open and the same young bearded individual wearing the RSMoK uniform walked in. Two uniformed and armed militia members followed him in as he took the podium. The man announced that his name was Corporal FW Bennots, and the militia had arrived to participate in the discussion. He counted the number of representatives in the room and then whispered something to one of the members of his staff, who left and returned with approximately 600 uniformed militia members, who took up all available seating, then stood along the walls, in the aisles, and around the podium. There was no comment from the Party leadership, who sat dejectedly at their seats. It was as if everyone knew what was going to happen, and nobody desired to oppose it.

Once the room was filled past capacity, Corporal Bennots began conducting the session. His first order of business was to remove the entire leadership, and establish a shadow cabinet made entirely of Militia ranked individuals. Interestingly enough, there were only two officers named to posts. This number was balanced by two non-rate Lance Corporals. All other posts were manned by a young cohort of Non-Commissioned Officers of ranks Corporal and Sergent. Later calculation reveals the average age of members of the new Shadow Cabinet to be 21. For all nominations, there were 600 yes votes, and zero no votes, with about 110 abstentions.

Cpl Bennots' next actions were to declare the SPoK replaced in all offices and organs by the Kalistani People's Revolutionary Front (KPRF). Bennots held open the door, however to eventual return to SPoK organization when he declared that KPRF is the militant organization of the Socialist Party of Kalistan. Again, there was overwhelming support for this motion on the floor and no opposition.

Finally Bennots ordered a full mobilization of the militia, and all its related institutions, as well as a recruitment and training drive to put 1% of all SPoK voters, or 480,000 members under arms within 1 year. He announced the organization of 3 more corps of Artillery, 4 corps of Infantry, developed along similar lines as the basic Artillery Corps, and 2 Support divisions. All 48 million supporters of the old Socialist Party were called upon to maintain their personal firearms and keep them ready in preparation for the defense of Kalistani Socialism from the forward movement of fascism, and the Socialist auxillary to the organs of the Revolutionary Freedom Party have also been activated.

Bennots then left the hall, and walked the short distance to Party HQ to announce the results of the Emergency Reconciliation Convention. As he took the balcony, he announced to the crowd of nearly 1 million that had accompanied the militia into the heart of downtown Kaliburg that the moderate Socialist movement is history, and if the Socialists would not be driven to return to their revolution by necessity, they would be returned to that road by force. "The Socialist Movement is not interested in concession any longer. We have seen over just one year 150 years of progress wiped out because democracy is just that fragile. We cannot trust people on the right to have the interests of the people of Kalistan in their minds when they pass legislation that favors business owners over people, that threatens to eliminate things that have been seen as BASIC FREEDOMS for over a century, and who want to establish a dark empire based on nuclear, chemical and biological weaponry. We will donate our blood to fight against this if we need to, but we must not stand for it any more, and we certainly must not help them crush the people of Kalistan under their pro-business, pro-socioeconoic minority boots. Our own Party has betrayed us, sitting in government with the same people who helped get this through, and in fact, who pushed this in the first place. To the moderates in our movement, we say 'NO ACCOMMODATION! NO CONCESSION! FOR KALISTAN, SOCIALISM OR REVOLUTION!' We will not settle for anything less."

With a huge roar that was heard at RSMoK militia camps well outside the capital (who answered back as if they were echoing the crowd in the city), Bennots left the balcony. A party erupted spontaneously, as if the people who were at the demonstration knew it would be a long time before they would be able to party again.

In the meanwhile, ousted Party leaders left the convention hall individually, but all in disgrace. The moderate Party leadership under long time leader Clement thus came to an end, and each retired to their home without comment.

KNN News: President Jon Bay of the Conservative Party of Kalistan addresses the nation.

President Jon Bay's Address to the Nation" My fellow Kalistanis, We are currently living in very interesting times, especially in Kalistan. Parties are at each other's throats, the Cabinet is changing every other day, and insane socialists are destroying things in the streets. We don't know what to expect next! Well, as you probably know, I'm not a very long winded man, so I'll make this brief.

The Conservative Party has always wanted what was best for Kalistan, we believe the Conservative Movement is just that. We believe in lower taxes, less government spending, less regulation, and the allowance of a laissez-fare economic system. We whole heartedly believe, that everyone wins in a free market. Now, we are fortunate enough to be a part of a Conservative coalition in the Government. We are great full for all the other parties who have supported us and we thank them. We could not do what we do without them.

But as President, I should not just speak for my party. I must also speak for those who elected me. That is all of you, the men and women of this great nation, who finally said that you were fed up with the Leftist Government, and wanted a new one. Well, you have exactly what you wanted, a Conservative Government. Isn't the democratic system beautiful? I know I can't do much, without the support of you, and I also know that my Party can't do much without the support of the rest of the parties in the Assembly. We are not out there to make enemies, we just want results!

My main message to you today is this, Do Not Fear! The Conservative Party detests Fascism, and will always vote against it. We are certain that our Coalition is free of Fascism as well. But we also can not stand for Communism and Socialism. Just because the government takes over the lives of every day citizens from the left instead of the right, doesn't make it OK! I, personally, will make sure that something stands in the way between your freedoms, and the Government. Absolute Government regulation is Tyranny, and that is what we will always be against.

Thank You for your time, God Bless You All!"

KPRF spokesmen reported yesterday that the KPRF is on target to meet its recruitment levels of close to half a million militia members under arms by the end of the summer, seven months ahead of scheduler.

"We have been swamped by Party members who were impressed by the radical redirection of the Socialist Party of Kalistan. We have opened recruit training depots in each District in Kalistan to handle the massive influx of new joins. Veteran Non Commissioned officer have been pulled out of RSMoK camps around the Republic and have been training the new individuals night and day. Curriculum includes close order drill, military discipline, learning to deal with stress and privation, both small and large weapons training, introduction to political warfare and basic artillery training. From there candidates go on to advanced school where they master the weapons system of their assigned unit, and then drop to field units to be integrated with veterans. In the meanwhile, veteran units have been broken up and dispersed throughout Kalistan to bring in the new forces and form new units." Both Arty and Infantry Corps have been established in all Districts of the country, in the countryside nearby major cities. New RSMoK bases have been developed by veteran surveyors, built on land donated by SPoK partisans.

The spokesman said further that at the rate they are inducting new partisans into the militia, RSMoK will meet goals set forth by its political front the KPRF, by the end of summer. Additionally, the Socialist contingent to the Kalistani Emergency Government has been forming, and have begun training with the RFP's militia, KLAWS (Kalistani Libertarian Army for World Socialism).

"We will be absolutely ready to defend Kalistan against the institution of fascism, should the need occur. We fully believe in on the job training!"

Cpl. FW Bennots, leader of the KPRF, joined the other members of the KPRF Shadow Government and went back to the field today, where he serves as an NCO in a Battalion Artillery survey section. Though they technically outrank their commanders, all members of the Shadow Cabinet are still members of the militia and still follow the chain of command. Two months ago, Bennots led a group mostly composed of NCO's to overthrow the civilian leadership of the Socialist Party and establish the KPRF in its place. The coup was unopposed, and so far only four of KPRF's civilian members of the Assembly have resigned in protest (they were subsequently replaced by militia members.) Bennot's continues to lead the Party from the field, and the once majestic SPoK Party headquarters in the very center of Kaliburg has now been converted to a barracks and armory for RSMoK's Kaliburg Regiment.

IN the meanwhile, KPRF has introduced several pieces of legislation designed to advance the cause of the Socialist Revolution in Kalistan, one being the Omnibus aimed at increasing the Party's Foreign Policy and ecology credentials.

Cash-Strapped Right Wing Party the Liberal Patriot's League Demobilizes Millita.

New Conservative Party of Kalistan Leader Johan Sebastian Releases Statement, Considers Formation of Official CpoK Militia

%%%%%

League News: Patriot Militia Demobilised

In a surprise announcement, Patriot Darth Jones has announced the Patriot Militia will be demobilising. In a statement, he said, "The League base has evaporated. And with it, so has our militia membership. There is no point in the League funding a militia that couldn't go three rounds with tooth fairy. We will however maintain our arms and food stockpiles, as well as bodyguards for senior League officials, who do not recieve official government protection.

This is the end of the road my fellow Patriots. Until the League can rebuild its right-wing base and corporate sponsorship; the Patriot Militia is no more.

But less not forget; the Right is now in power. And we lead that government. Kalistan Prevails, Patriots!"

The announcement is expected to be enacted in short order, as the near bankrupt League struggles to keep its head above water, following its massive fall from grace.

%%%%%%%

Johann Sebastian, New Leader of the Conservative Party, was Quoted to Have Said:

" We are a little daunted here, parties are mobilizing and demobilizing militia, and things are going to get ugly quick. We are considering the formation of a Conservative militia, designed to defend our party members and our Headquarters here in Kaliburg, but details will come later. At the moment, we are relying on the new coalition Government to protect us from any danger down the road. The fact is, we hope the left doesn't attack us, but if they do, we will be ready."

Well, It looks like there was a vote of "No Confidence" which actually seemed to increase the People's Confidence in the Conservative Coalition. The Coalition has grown from holding 391 seats to now having an astounding 436 seats in the Assembly, with the addition of the new Prawo i Sprawiedliwość Party (PSP). After Celebration in the streets outside the Conservative Headquarters in Kaliburg, Johann Sebastian had this to say,

"The Conservative Coalition is stronger than ever! And now, the entire mainland completely supports conservative Political Parties. this is a great day for Conservatism!!"

Johann Sebastian was of course alluding to the Conservative Party winning Vrassa, Suldanor, and Neveras, while their close friends the National Radical Party won Odufaray. The only bastion of leftists left is the island of Ananto. The new Conservative Coalition is looking forward to continuing its Control of the Government, under the Premier Darth Jones of the LPL.

It was not a total Victory for the Conservatives, however. We did, unfortunately, lose the Presidency, however Jon Bay has vowed to run again, as long as he's alive,

"I'm old, but I'm able to run this country, and I will Run again. I thank all the parties that threw their support behind me, and I promise I will challenge Leftists till the day I die!"

In other Party News, Militia Recruitment has begun. The Conservative Party is shocked at the amount of applicants who have already signed up to join. Minister of Defense John Dangerson had this to say:

"We are recruiting mostly in order to have a means of protection for our property and the property of our supporters, We will not use our Militia aggressively. Now, we seem to be getting most recruits from the mainland, and It is unbelievable the amount of interest there is in fighting for the Conservative Cause. We are far exceding our recruitment goals, which might pose a bit of a concern, but overall we are very excited, and anxious to get to defending liberty and Conservatism."

Overall, the Conservative Party is excited, we lost seats in the Assembly, but we are anxious to begin strengthening the new Coalition which can accomplish so much if it only works together. We are extremely happy that so many new parties have taken up the mantel of Conservatism with the LPL and us (the LPL being the first, of course) and we are ready to take Kaliburg by storm.

REVOLUCION- The Official Bulletin of the Socialist Revolution in Kalistan

KPRF Militia shuts down main roads on mainland and surrounds Kaliburg; State under seige

KPRF militias established checkpoints on all major roads going in and out of most cities and towns on the mainland today. The Militia further announced that its Corps stationed in Ananto had several important targets registered in the Capital City. Kalistan is effectively under siege from the KPRF Party's militia, the Revolutionary Socialist Militia of Kalistan.

When asked why the RSMoK opted to close down transportation in Kalistan, militia spokesman Capt. Peter Gustavssen responded: "Due to the absolute failure of the National Government to refrain from de-socializing the society or the destruction of the rights of the People of Kalistan, our Militia has been given orders to block off urban settlements from the countryside. We aim to provide a buffer between the fascists in charge of the Government, and the people of Kalistan, and establish parallel institutions in the countryside to continue to promote socialist ideals until the crisis in the National government can be resolved."

New food banks, funded by KPRF coffers have been opened in the countryside, and food bound for state food banks diverted to the countryside. At the same time, KPRF communications sections have set up radio and television jamming stations and broadcast stations to jam private signals in the countryside, and to broadcast socialist Propaganda into the cities. Requisitions of property has not begun in the countryside and no private property has been violated by the Militia. KPRF pickets have been assigned to patrol through wide swaths of the countryside, and state military forces have not been spotted outside of the Cities.

KPRF propaganda announces several different messages each hour. It calls all socialists to leave the cities and come to the countryside where KPRF maintains order and socialism. It also further calls for the Right to bring leftists into the government. it announces that the previous special elections were legitimate, and vote totals accurate reflect the votes of those who cast them, but claims that KPRF's underperformance was due to socialist boycotts of the vote and KPRF militia field exercise. Propaganda also announces that Kalistan has ceased to be a socialist nation and it was up to each and every socialist to do something to restore that arrangement. Propaganda also broadcasts populistic messages, encouraging people to oppose the government's enforcement of various anti-socialist laws, through work stoppage and general strike. It also encouraged them to avoid sabotage of their workplace, because "This is your property, not the capitalists. Do not hurt yourself by destroying your own jobs."

The garrison at the old Headquarters of the Socialist Party in downtown Kaliburg has been transformed into a command center, and Party staff, as well as militia command has reported to duty at the garrison. A corridor between Party HQ and the field units has been establish via reinforced underground bullet train that apparently has been in use now for fifteen years and was constructed by the Socialist Party before the crisis.

In other news, four socialists were arrested by the police today during a protest composed of 1200 people. The four were arrested after battling police officers who were attempting to direct the protest away from the city center. One protester was discovered to be carrying a brick. The protest was in support of the Comprehensive Job Creation Program.
